Place the fabric, with the buttonhole
marked, under the buttonhole foot.
Without lowering the foot, let the
needle pierce the fabric at the
beginning of the buttonhole. Pull the
foot all the way forward so that the
index mark (A) is aligned with the
graduation (B). Lower the foot.
(Reproduction of the identical size
buttonholes is facilitated with the aid
of the graduations cn the left side of
the buttonhole foot. These gradua- :
tions are 1/8" apart. Graduations act
as reference mark.)
W_th the buttonhole control at F,
stitch forward until you approach the
front marking of your buttonhole.
